Bonjour,
Comment peut-on récupérer l'ensemble du carnet d'adresse de Thunderbird V60.6.1 sur Mac ?
je ne suis pas sur d'avoir bien compris :
1/ si vous souhaitez importer les carnets d'adresses standard de Thunderbird vers CardBook, alors il faut faire click droit a droite "Nouveau carnet d'adresses", puis selectionner la troisieme ligne "Importer les carnets d'adresses standards"
2/ si vous voulez exporter les carnets d'adresses de CardBook alors le mieux c'est de faire un export en vcf (click droit sur le carnet d'adresses, puis export...)
3/ si je n'ai pas compris le message, alors sonnez ici : cardbook@cardbook.icu :O)

This has been a game changer for me - from the lumbering, old, built-in Address Book to something that is a quantum leap forward.
Even with the great Add-on "MoreFunctionsForAddressBook" at https://freeshell.de/~kaosmos/morecols-en.html the poor old built-in Address Book just can't compete any longer with CardBook.
Mozilla would do well to introduce CardBook as a complete replacement for Address Book especially as the import function in CardBook works quite well.
CardBook will even properly sync ID photos for online address books.
Frequent attention via frequent updates inspires confidence.
Thank you and well done to Philippe V.

Ist leider nicht kompatibel zum internen Adressbuch und somit für alle anderen Addons nicht nutzbar. Auch wird im Austausch mit Server Datenbank immer wieder ein Datensatz verloren - ganz besonders wenn diese vom Handy aus geändert wurde. Ausbaufähig ist sicher auch die Synchronisation, die nur manuell erfolgen kann.
Der Hype ist für mich nicht nachvollziehbar, zumal es sehr gut funktioniert Synchronisationslösungen mit CardDAV gibt
for what I've understood :
1/ yes it's incompatible with most of others addons... but there already are compatible addons such as Lightning, Mail Merge, Mail Redirect, ...
2/ send me the CardBook synchronisation logs and I will search where is the issue
3/ synchronisation is not only manual but can also be periodic (edit Address book properties, third tab)
4/ if you make a CardDAV sync with the Thunderbird standard address books, it is simply not possible to sync a contact who has 5 email addresses

A must-have for those who use vCard format contact lists!
One question: How do you add a URL for synchronization? When I go into "Preferences" and select the "Sync" tab, it will not allow me to type in the "Address books discovery" field, even after I tick the "Accounts" box.
UPDATE: Thanks much Philippe, that did the trick. Thanks again for a great add-on!
Hi
right click on the left pane, then "Add New Address Book", then choose remote...
in CardBook preferences, sync tab, discovery groupbox, you will only see CardDAV accounts that were previously added.

This is great and should replace the address book that is built into Thunderbird.

Comme toujours, on se demande pourquoi les extensions de ce genre ne sont pas intégrées par défaut ! Tout simplement indispensable, mais incompatible avec les version après la 60.

Amazing tech support and great add-on. I am back on Thunderbird. I tried Windows Mail. What a pain.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Very good but I cant do this. Please help me. I cant use it without this function. I tried to set up but not working for me. Thank you.
I cant find this:
in CardBook preferences, email tab, you may collect the outgoing email addresses into CardBook

in CardBook preferences, email tab, you may collect the outgoing email addresses into CardBook (the email collection into Thunderbird standard address books will also still happen)... then in CardBook preferences, general tab, you may check the option "CardBook as unique source for contacts"
--------------------------------------------------------
may you contact me at cardbook.thunderbird@gmail.com ?

Extremely helpful add-on to manage contacts and to sync them via carddav. My critics is with the date format. As end user it's completely irrelevant for me in which format dates are saved internally. But to display and edit dates I want to have a format, which corresponds to the locale/region, like "DD.MM.YYYY". The required format "YYYYMMDD" to enter birthdates is suboptimal - kindly expresed.

Dear developer,
I love your AddOn it covers so much of missing development on Thunderbird!
But I think a found a serious BUG. When I drag and drop a category on the left side just under the dynamic address book search "all contacts" to another position within "all contacts" the category gets deleted together with the whole contacts.
Same happens, when I drap and drop a category from my addressbook to "all contacts", the use case obviously wouldn't make sense, but shouldn't end in such a destructive behaviour.
Thanks for reading.
thanks a lot, this will be solved in next version (in instance of approbation) by disabling the possibility to drag and drop to a virtual address book's category

UPDATE: Philippe has been great about fixing things, and has fixed the data loss in the new Beta version, near as I can tell. Since CardBook is going to be a very good add-on, I'm changing my Rating for it.
OLD REVIEW BELOW:
*** DATA LOSS ALERT ***
And yes, I will contact the author about it as soon as I post this here.
CardBook is a potentially good addon, with (so far) a pretty serious data error in the concatenated (lumped together) Email and URL fields. This bug DELETES data from Email (No Type) and URL (No Type) - and possibly from the other URL fields - and stores the deleted data ONLY in the concatenated field. It does not put the deleted email addrs and urls back in their original fields when exporting. They are trapped in the CardBook concatenated fields and would have to be copied out manually one at a time to export them or back them up into another format. If you can even figure out which email addrs and urls are the deleted ones.
The Name fields are also concatenated - but in this case it's only for display purposes, no data is deleted, and all the data exports just fine. The author very probably intended the Email and URL fields to work the same as the Name fields. I.e., without any data loss.
A program that deletes your data should not be used, so I'm sure the author will fix this issue ASAP.
this issue happening when importing csv files, will be solved in next version

Ausgezeichnetes Add-on zur Adressverwaltung in Thunderbird. CardBook synchronisiert sich ohne PProbleme mit einer Nextcloud / Owncloud Installation, so dass Adressen auf verschiedensten Gerätren verfügbar sind (Für Android empfehle ich die App DAVDroid). Es sind viele Felder vorhanden, Geburtstage werden von Lightning übernommen. Verbesserungsfähig ist die Listen-Verwaltung. Um eine Mail-Liste zu erstellen muss man die zugehörigen Kontakte einzeln in einem extra Fenster in die Liste ziehen. Es wäre besser, wenn man z.B. per Kontextmenu im Hauptfenster die Kontakte einer Liste zuordnen könnte. Etwas verwirrend ist das Datumsformat für Geburtstage.

Bonjour,
Merci beaucoup Philippe pour cette extension indispensable qui fait de Thunderbird un outil complet (je l'utilise professionellement et personellement de façon très satisfaisante combiné à un serveur Nextcloud pour la synchronisation des contacts et des agendas).
Pour info, il y a une demande pour demander son intégration nativement dans Thunderbird (comme on l'a fait pour Lightning). Le vote c'est ici : https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1372580

Must-have addon for proper CardDAV support and integration. Thank you very much for your work!

This add-on has been very reliable with my carddav server, and has steadily improved -- my gratitude to M. Vigneau for such a huge commitment.

Grundsätzlich sehr brauchbar, bis jetzt.
3 Punkte die mich stören:
1. Seit Version 32.6 kann ich kein Adressbuch mehr anlegen, auch die vorläufige Version 32.7 bringt keine Abhilfe. Ich habe also wieder auch 32.5 "down gegraded".
2. Ich benutze cardbook auf 2 verschiedenen Rechnern, mit der Schnittstelle zu einem Synology NAS. Auf beiden Rechnern sind die Anordnung und Anzahl der Eingabefelder unterschiedlich, trotz der gleichen Version 32.5
3. Es gibt ein paar Datensätze, die sich nicht mehr synchronisieren lassen (code 403). Mir ist noch nicht ersichtlich warum nicht. Ich habe keine gemeinsamen Merkmale dieser Datensätze zu anderen Daten gefunden.
1/ ooh stupid me : 32.7 (in instance of approbation) will correct this bug
2/ 3/ you surely do not have the same address book version... create address books with the same version (3.0) on your two computers and this should solve this issue

Ich hatte CardBook in TB 60.3.0 (32-bit) auf einem Win10-Rechner installiert, und seit kurzem wurden jedesmal die Mails, deren Adresse ich in CardBook übernehmen wollte, mit dem Klick auf ›OK‹ komplett entfernet. Sie landeten also auch nicht im Papierkorb, sondern waren nirgendwo mehr auffindbar. Das war selbstverständlich nicht akzeptabel, weshalb ich das ansonsten sehr nützliche Add-on entfernt habe.

Its good that someone writes something to use with CardDAV, but its far away from useful. Its a completely new IDE, when we just needed a interface. please do not rewrite the address-book of Thunderbird. Do just the Interface to CardDAV.
This review is for a previous version of the add-on (32.5).To create your own collections, you must have a Mozilla Add-ons account.
